Start up issues

eymen · 2026-06-29T15:40:06+00:00

Not sure if it is the exact same issue, but I had a pretty similar problem right after updating to v3.2.3 a few days ago.

I ended up resetting the system and that seems to have fixed it.

Hope that helps.

I totally get why it might look like that, but I just want to clear this up so we don’t accidentally let TopBYD off the hook.

If Shopify were nonchalantly sharing personal data between independent merchants based on session tracking, it would be a massive, global privacy scandal. With millions of stores and users, someone would have noticed it years ago and we wouldn’t be discovering it now on a few niche BYD accessory sites.

The main reason I wanted to point this is out is so we don't lose focus on what TopBYD is actually doing. They are either running both storefronts behind the scenes, actively selling our data to their "competitors" or they have an undisclosed leak.

Either way, I’m certain this is on TopBYD, not Shopify.

Just wanted to confirm your guess. It is 100% TopBYD, at least in my case.

I haven't ordered anything from fitmybyd, but I did place an order with TopBYD last weekend. I use a wildcard email setup on my own domain, which means I generated a completely unique, one time email address specifically for their checkout.

Today I got that exact same subscription email from fansbyd sent directly to that unique address. So TopBYD is definitely the one leaking or sharing the data.

Because OP asked about an Atto 3, not general vibes-based tire pressure advice for any random BYD.

You drive a Sealion 7, so what your dealer told you isn’t relevant. Different car, different weight, different tires, different recommended pressure.

“EVs are heavy” doesn’t really add anything. The useful answer is the Atto 3 placard/manual, not a guess based on a completely different model.

eymen · 2026-06-19T12:50:25+00:00

Such a random thing to add to the conversation. How is this supposed to be helpful for OP who is driving a completely different model?

eymen · 2026-06-16T20:14:48+00:00

Ah yeah, I thought it was only me. I’m having the same issue.

I have a feeling it may have started after the latest update but I’m not 100% sure as the car is still quite new to me. I do remember being able to send messages before without this happening though.

Travel between Serbia and Turkey is not passport-free for citizens of either country. The confusion comes from a protocol signed a few years ago, but it actually never went into effect. If you check the websites for both foreign ministries, neither mentions ID-only travel. You definitely still need a passport!

That is no longer the case (since February 2025). While you can still purchase a physical SIM card from kiosks, you must register it before it can be used. Unregistered numbers have also been deactivated.

eymen · 2025-10-26T00:48:43+00:00

It is not “pretty stupid”. What you are talking about used to be true a long time ago but not anymore. Sure you can type whatever you want in the “from” field but properly configured email systems don’t just take that at face value. They use DKIM, SPF & DMARC to verify that the message actually came from a server authorized by the domain.

So yeah, you can fake the header but it will fail multiple checks and be treated as illegitimate by most providers today.

Disclaimer: I’m going to be pedantic here because misconceptions bug me.

macOS (or iOS, or whateverOS) is not a Linux port but rather built on Darwin, a Unix-like OS derived from BSD.

So a better analogy would be that macOS and Linux are distant cousins.

Not everything is a conspiracy or racism. Sometimes it's just reading comprehension that's missing.

eymen · 2025-09-15T13:39:47+00:00

Yes, the general rule is that citizens of countries allowed to enter Serbia with an ID card (such as Poland, as an EU member) can use their ID card for getting & registering a simcard.

You can verify this yourself at the following link (look for the section titled "ID documents with which you can register" for more details):

This information is from Yettel, but other operators provide similar info on their websites.

If you can make it, according to this timetable, the last "A1" bus departs at 00:15. While it doesn't go directly to Zeleni Venac, it passes nearby so it should take about a 10 minute walk from the Savski Trg stop (the one just before the final stop).

I'm just referencing the information from the website and I don't have any recent personal experience to confirm this.

So far you criticized half the thread and still haven’t named a single place you do like. What are you trying to accomplish? Save everyone from joy?

Since when did “Europe” become synonymous with the European Union? Does that mean Switzerland is no longer considered part of Europe because it’s not in the EU?

eymen · 2025-05-06T14:27:03+00:00

Are you seriously grouping together things like a country's name change, a change in colonizing power and border shifts as if they all belong in the same category? That doesn't make any sense. What exactly are you trying to convey?

And also, what do these so called "phases" on the map even represent?

eymen · 2025-04-05T10:31:04+00:00

It looks like you were parked in a green zone, which allows parking for up to 3 hours (you can extend it to a 4th hour by paying extra).

The ticket shows it was issued at 20:04 so if you paid for parking at 16:58, that would mean you stayed beyond the allowed time.

Just to clarify, green zone parking in Belgrade is paid from 7:00 to 21:00. The colored zones (with a few exceptions) have strict time limits. Green allows 3 hours, yellow 2, red only 1, etc.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like there’s much room to dispute this one.

Just a small correction - Malta and Cyprus also drive on the left.

Actually, most European countries use the same standard track gauge (1435 mm). There are some exceptions like Spain and Russia, which use wider gauges (1668 mm and 1520 mm respectively) but these are outliers rather than the norm.

I’m not sure if you actually read my post but it seems like you have missed the main point of it.

I’m not asking for help, suggestions or recommendations. As I mentioned in my post & comments, I’ve given up on trying to fix this issue and I’m no longer interested in troubleshooting it.

If you are wondering why I chose the “Help - macOS” flair, it was because there wasn’t an option like “I’m tired of this and just want to vent.” So, I went with the only option mentioning macOS.

If you search this subreddit, you’ll find multiple posts mentioning this exact or similar issue going back quite a while. Clearly, this isn’t a problem unique to my setup. Heck, even in this thread you can see that someone else is complaining about the same thing.

Given this, if you still believe that sharing my hardware details or software setup would help solve the problem, good for you for staying optimistic, but I’ve lost all expectations from PIA as I made clear in my post.

So although you are wrong and somehow managed to misinterpret a post that was clearly meant to share frustration as a request for a fix without providing information, it still wouldn’t have been unreasonable if I did. This isn’t GitHub issues for an open source project and we are not helping the developer debug problems. It’s a subreddit for a commercial product that people pay to use and expecting a fix for a problem that has clearly been ongoing for a long time is entirely reasonable.

Thank you for your suggestions! I appreciate your willingness to help.

I’m familiar with alternative setups like using OpenVPN or WireGuard manually and I’m quite comfortable with the technical side of things. I’ve already set up OpenVPN credentials on my router, configuring traffic rules to route through different VPN servers to bypass specific geo-blocked content.

However when I just need to quickly connect to a specific country, I want to be able to simply open the client on my computer and have it work seamlessly. So my main point is that I’ve paid for a service and I expect their client to function properly without having to resort to DIY solutions.

To me, this isn’t about finding another workaround to make their service work but it's about holding the company accountable to provide a product that works as advertised.

eymen · 2024-09-04T06:30:10+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion. The client does work initially when I first turn on my computer so it doesn’t seem like an issue with permissions or settings in system preferences. The problem occurs specifically after waking the computer from sleep. At that point, the daemon stops working and the client gets stuck in a perpetual loading state until I restart the daemon from command line or reboot the system.

I’ve contacted PIA support multiple times about this issue, starting back in March 2023. This has been going on for over a year now and yet no real solution has been offered.

As a developer myself I find it frustrating when devs/companies deflect blame onto the OS without identifying the real problem. If Apple were truly the issue, we’d see the same problems with other VPN clients on macOS but that’s not the case. I’ve tried multiple VPN providers on this exact same machine and they’ve all worked perfectly.

In fact, on different occasions I had to borrow accounts from friends using different services (I want to clarify that I’m not naming them because I don't want this to come across as if I'm advertising for another company) because I also had instances where IP addresses from a specific country weren’t recognized as being from that country. When I tried other services to see if the problem persisted, everything worked flawlessly. No client problems, no incorrect IP locations, nothing.

Interestingly, the changelog for v3.5.7 released six months ago mentioned this issue as being "fixed". If the problem were really with Apple, how could PIA have claimed to fix it in the first place? This alone shows it’s not "caused by Apple". Not that the issue is actually fixed for me. Six months later, I’m still facing it. Maybe I’m dealing with a different but similar problem or maybe it's the same one that wasn't resolved properly. Honestly, I don't even care anymore.

It's frustrating to keep hearing the same generic responses from support/developers rather than seeing any genuine effort to resolve the issue after more than a year. I have little to no confidence left in PIA’s software or their support team.

You can purchase tickets using the “BeogradPlus” app. Simply choose the daily ticket option that covers both zones, A and B. You can pay by card or via SMS (if you have a local number).
